About Me

Tierra Verde Handmade Soap

I’m a wife, mom, and a self proclaimed soap nerd with an entrepreneurial spirit-living in Lubbock Texas, (a place best known for our expansive horizon, cotton,and as the birth place of Buddy Holly.)I guess you might say I’ve got a serious addiction to all things soap related. Come hang out, as I share my adventures in a world where chemistry meets art.

“Homemade soap feels good: soft, rich, enveloping, soothing. The lather is dense and penetrating rather than thin and airy. It leaves an emollient film on your skin that makes it feel soft and sensuous. Homemade soap is comforting in ways which manufactured soap can never be: its look, its weight, its bulk, how it feels in your hands, looks in its dish. There is something ineffable about homemade soap. It’s not homogenized, pasteurized, deodorized, sanitized or synthesized - it’s one of a kind, every bar different, each unique. It is idiosyncratic in the way of all homemade and handmade things.”

I just made a delivery of a few "earthly delights" over to the Tornado Gallery at 19th and Buddy Holly. There is some good stuff-Barley and Hops (beer) Shave Rounds, Clove Shave Rounds, Vanilla Patchouli Shave Rounds, Lavender Rustica bar soaps, Orange Honey Drizzle Bar Soaps, and a few sample packs.

If you are a fan of Orange Honey Drizzle or Lavender Rustica get them while they're hot-the previous bars delivered were gone-they sell quickly.

I am a huge "I Love Lucy" fan. I love the clothes, the writing, the wholesome comedy and pretty much everything about the show. I have the dvd set, and if there is an "I Love Lucy" marathon on-I am one happy girl.

I met and hugged C. B Stubblefield at a Joe Ely concert. Stubbs was a large man with a kind and generous heart. He genuinely wanted to feed the world. "I was born hungry; I wants to feed the world."~ C.B. Stubblefield.

My very favorite color is green-preferably in the mossy green family. My second favorite is Red Orange.

I love new school supplies. My favorites are calendars, new crayons and chubby Ticonderoga pencils.

I prefer to write in pencil because I hate to make mistakes in pen-if I make a mistake in pen I start over instead of marking through.

Snakes mortify me.

I have a pet peeve about wet socks-CAN.NOT.STAND.THEM.-if my sock gets damp I have to ditch it immediately. Yuck!
